On Ozsváth and Szabó's branched covering description of holomorphic disks in symmetric products

They really mean to evaluate $\hat u$ on the $g$ points (with multiplicity) in $p^{-1}(z)$, so $u(z)=[\hat u(z_1),\ldots,\hat u(z_g)]$ where $p^{-1}(z)=\lbrace z_1,\ldots,z_g\rbrace$ (with possible re …

Is there a reasonable definition of TQFTs for n-cobordisms with connected inputs/outputs?

Katrin Wehrheim has this issue too for 2+1 dimensions; she's referred to it as "connected TFT" (at least in private communication). She and Chris Woodward are currently working on it (using Lagrangian …
